When I was just fifteen years old, my struggles with acne began.

At the time, I had just been diagnosed with IBS the year prior.  My gut health was absolutely garbage. I experienced regular bloating, constipation, and excessive gassiness.

I was give topical ointments... DIDN'T work. I was put on birth control.... ALSO* didn't work. I just wanted it to go away. This resulted in lots of picking (unfortunately, pimple patches weren't around at this time) and then scarring.

As you can imagine... the root cause was NOT addressed at this time.

When I was in college, my acne got WORSE as a result of a growing hormonal imbalance.

I was experiencing painful, cystic acne. This made me not want to LEAVE* my dorm. It was debilitating.

Through integrative health testing, I finally got to the root cause of my acne... BUT I was left with hyperpigmentation & scarring (picture here).

I would not leave my house without makeup. EVEN* for a 5 AM workout. Before leaving, I would throw on some concealer + powder half asleep.

This is when I found Clearstem. I wanted to feel confident in my own skin again— & establish a skincare routine without pore-clogging ingredients.

I bought the Clear Skin Kit and noticed results after two weeks. I was RAVING about it on social media when they reached out to partner with me. This changed the game for me.... & it has helped SO many women I know achieve more confidence.
